Yet, cookies take the cake when compared to their bar counterparts. Because of this, we anticipate that you will like our compilation of our favorite cookie recipes just as much as you loved the last one including bar recipes. The fourth one is here, which I used to refer to as chewy white beans cookies in the past.
In order to make 12 large cookies:
Time required for preparation: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
- 1 cup (250ml) of pre cooked organic white beansWhite bean puree
- 2 tbsp.(30ml) of grounded organic flax seeds
- 10 tbsp. (150ml) of water
- 1/4 cup (62.5ml) of organic coconut oil
- 1/2 cup (125ml) of organic whole brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (125ml) of organic amaranth flour

- In a small bowl, mix the flax seeds with 6 tbsp. of water and let stand for more or less 10 minutes.
- In a small food processor or with a mixer, puree the white beans with 4 tbsp. of water. You would probably need less if you use canned white beans, the are so overcooked.
- In another bowl, combine the amaranth flour, the tapioca starch, the baking powder, the salt, the chocolate chips and the nuts.
- In another bowl, cream the coconut oil and the brown sugar.
- Then gradually add the flour mix, the white bean puree and the flax seeds.
- On a cookie sheet, make your 12 big cookies or more if they are smaller and place it in the oven.
- Cook them for approx. 20 minutes or until the bottom turns golden.
- Remove them from the oven and place them on a wire rack for 10 minutes to cool down.

These cookies have a wonderful flavor. Either by itself or with a cup of coffee in the morning, they are one of my favorite things to eat.
I am overjoyed that you created them. Since my kid has an egg allergy, I am constantly seeking for great dishes that do not use eggs that I can make for him. They were very tasty despite their apparent lack of effort. I am grateful.
These are so simple to make, how could you not fall in love with them? I am grateful that you shared this recipe with me.
These cookies that my sister baked for me and sent to me in a care box are just out of this world. The quantity of chocolate called for in the recipe is just right as well; there is neither too little nor too much of it.
And, just a little message before I officially say my goodbyes to all of you: You are one thousand, no, one million, no, one billion, no, one billion times more great, pleasant, and fantastic than any of these recipes. Love you, love you all!

FAQs
Your Eggs, Doubled The vast majority of cookie recipes need the use of at least one egg. You might try leaving out the egg whites of each egg and replace them with an extra egg yolk. Egg whites have a tendency to dry up when they are cooked. In addition, egg yolks have a higher fat content than egg whites do, which helps to ensure that your cookies remain moist and chewy after baking.
Since shortening does not contain any moisture, it does not stimulate the production of gluten, which leads to a cookie that is more soft and crumbly. On the other hand, when gluten is generated in a cookie made with butter, the result might be a chewy cookie. Although though it may not make sense at first glance, it is possible for cookies made with butter to be crisp. Since butter melts into a thinner layer during the baking process, this is feasible.
How to Bake Cookies That Are Not Hard
Make sure the butter and sugar are well combined.
Choose a flour that is low in protein.
Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Put your dough in the fridge.
Increase the proportion of white sugar to brown sugar in the recipe.
Don’t bother chilling the dough.
Be sure to crush the dough and shake the pan.

It is recommended that you use a lot less granulated sugar, a little bit more brown sugar, and a good deal less butter if you want the cookies to be softer and chewier. In order to get a cakey texture in your cookies, you will often need to use even less butter and sugar.
The dough has a greater concentration of sugar since there is less “free moisture” lingering around, and the higher this proportion, the more probable it is that you will produce cookies with chewy centers and crispy edges.
When I’m looking for a chewy consistency in my baked goods, I always go for bread flour first. While there is more protein overall, there is also more gluten.
How much Crisco equals 1 stick of butter?
In most cases, you may replace butter or margarine with an equal quantity of Crisco shortening in your recipes (1 cup of Crisco shortening is equivalent to 1 cup of butter or margarine). Not only does Crisco shortening contain half the amount of saturated fat that butter does and zero grams of trans fat per serving, but it also produces baked products that are airier and more lofty.
Reduce the amount of creaming time for a thick cookie that retains its chewiness…. all chewy cookies are soft, but not all soft cookies are chewy.
High concentration of sugar and liquid, with a relatively low amount of fat.
Significant number of eggs present.
During the mixing process, strong flour or gluten produced.
Cookies are more likely to maintain their chewy texture if they are baked at 375 degrees Fahrenheit rather than at a lower temperature. This is because they will bake more quickly at the higher temperature, reducing the amount of time they spend exposed to the hot and dry air inside the oven. It is preferable to remove the baking sheet from the oven just before the cookies have reached their final consistency; underbaking is preferable than overbaking.
Cookies made with butter, as opposed to cookies made with shortening
Cookies that are cooked with simply butter may not rise as much and could spread a little bit more, but the edges will be crispier and the flavor will be richer because of the butter. Cookies that are created with simply shortening will produce a baked good that rises more and maintains its form more effectively throughout the baking process.
